Bizarre and very cool tinnie by Paulmann & Crone. Deutsch-Englische Frontkampfer Treffen Sept 1935. I have looked into this and it does seem that a small delegation of British went to Germany to check on how German veteran groups were structured and handled. This may or may not have been in conjunction with the rally that would have been held at about that time. Very cool tinnie that I have never seen nor heard of before I found this one. Nice solid metal construction 38mm.

This is a second Waffen SS 1944 Der Soldatenfreund. These are hard to find and this actually came from the same place as the other I have listed. These were pocket handbooks and are always well worn when found as they were cheaply made and likely spent time in the bottom of rucksacks on the Eastern front. Pages are delicate as again, they were not made with the best of materials. The back page is loose as is the other example I have listed. The front part is a personal journal...

Some items are cool beyond their value and this is one of this pieces where we say "Oh if it could talk...". Super looking German entrenching tool (Shovel) that just screams western front trench warfare. The blade has two marks which I take to be a manufacturer mark and military acceptance mark. The date is a little rubbed out but looks like 1915. 1915 is also impressed into the handle wood. The leather blade cover and is also maker marked and dated 1916...

Cool set of Vietnam era handcuffs. A friend bought these from the veteran. There is a bit of surface oxidation in spots but would clean up quickly with a spot of oil. Key does work fine on both sides. Original leather belt holder and two of the fellow's name tags. Nice heavy duty set.

Silver Adolf Hitler medallion dated 1938 1939. Both front and back have imprint of artist's name: Hanisch Concee. 36mm in diameter. Front reads "The one and only leader of all Germans". The reverse reads "The greater German empire has risen". Comes in original box with green felt lining in the bottom and form fit for the medallion. The bottom is marked "Silber". Interesting piece priced below similar examples.

Nice SA Dagger by Herder. Shows gentle wear. Blade is generally very clean with no rust, spotting or sharpening; Gentle in-out marks only. Nickel fittings on handle and scabbard are excellent with that nice patina that nickel gets over the years. The scabbard ball is in great shape but there is a light ding to the upper scabbard shell (See photos). The nice thing about this dagger is that it shows early quality workmanship and all pieces fit perfect with no unsightly gaps are odd angles...

Powerful plaque depicting angels casting out a German soldier from the city of Reims as the cathedral burns in the distance and the French civilians lie on the ground. The burning of this cathedral was one of the major propaganda points for the French during WWI. The plaque is in wonderful shape. The box is intact and the pressure fit button works. There is damage to the lid lining as per last photo and a little bit in the front corners...

Very cool Waffen SS soldier's handbook. The first page has a slightly blurred stamp indicating it is from office of Germanizing Russia (DDR Deutsctum im Rusland). The first part of the book is a daily journal of which there are some entries (A couple more then shown in the attached photos). Interestingly the second 4 in 1944 is crossed out in each and replaced with a 5 so this journal is actually for 1945. The entries stop after a few pages...

Fresh out of the woodwork Gotz von Berlichingen cufftitle. Great example. One wear spot on the far left and one light stain on the lettering. Slightly rumpled but absolutely real. This was one of the divisions in place just in time for the Normandy invasion and subsequent battles. Great piece.

Cool Wehrmacht drivers license. Fellow's date of birth is given as 1900. I suspect that it was before that as the 19 is pre-printed and it looks like some thought was put into it before 00 was placed over top of something else...

Unopened Vietnam POW MIA bracelet for LCDR HUGH A STAFFORD USN 30 AUG 67. Band is marked NICKEL SILVER on the inside. Stafford was returned in 1973 and retired from the Navy as a Commander. He passed away in 2003.

Very nice Prussian plate. Size is a bit smaller then normal so I believe this may be less for a pickelhaube and more for a shako. At any rate this is certainly far scarcer then the full size type. A little over 3.5 inches wide and a little over 4 inches high.

This is a very interesting armored car cigarette lighter that does look to be WWII vintage or earlier. At 13.5 ounces and almost 5 inches long this is not designed to be carried around in a pocket; Rather it is meant to be left on one's desk as an interesting conversation piece with visitors. There are so many different types of armored cars that vary so little in appearance that, with inaccuracies of a small object like this, I can not tell nationality. Could be Japanese or it could be British....

Really nice NSKK side cap in great shape with not a lick of damage that I could find. The RZM tag is a bit worn and faded but the more important fact is that it is there and complete. Original NSKK buttons and beautiful orange NSKK cap eagle with early quality silver-aluminum threading and black trim. I believe Orange color denotes Motor-Brigade Sudwest. Very clean example.
